There have been reports of three "finds"
The accounts of the last two finds may be being mixed up.

An AFP news agency photographer saw police collect one piece of debris, measuring about 100 square centimetres, on Sunday morning.

Police placed the debris — which had a sort of handle partially covered by leather and inscribed with two ideograms — in an iron case.
This is likely to be the item pictured in the previous post that was put in a small flight case.
(Perhaps the remains of a passenger bag?)
ABC go on to elaborate that the item reported as a door was 70cm in length, there are no pictures of this item to date. I notice a white strip of metal in the above picture that could be 70cm in lenght, so perhaps the report of the door relates to the "handle" debris?

Also on Sunday, a man handed police a piece of debris measuring 70 centimetres, guessing it was part of a plane door.
